We get to the table and a short stacked George Danzer is all in and at risk with against a big stack who held . The board would run out to give Danzer's opponent a wheel.
"Nice playing with you guys," said the German pro as he gathered his things.
After coming into today with just a few bets left, defending champ Calen McNeil has quickly run up a solid stack of 47,000. With his volatile style, that could change quickly, however.
We found Phil Ivey calling off his last 1,200 on fourth street with spread on the felt in front of the dealer. Jordan Cossette, who had bet, got one other caller in Tony Merksick, but both players checked the river.
Cossette turned over for a counterfeited two pair, but Merksick and Ivey both indicated they couldn't beat it. Ivey slapped his cards down and exited with a quick "good luck" to his former table.
Marcel Luske, in the cutoff, called bets from the button on every street as the board came .
The button showed for a bare nut low, and Luske had called down with for the nut low as well. His ace-king high took the high half, however, and he made out with three-quarters.
With a flop of , the player in the big blind checked as did an early position player. Greg Raymer bet, was check-raised by the big blind and the early position player flatted. Raymer called as well.
The turn was the and the player in the big blind slowed down and checked. The early position player bet and Raymer called all in for 1,000 less. The player in the big blind folded and the cards were turned over:
Raymer for a full house, aces full of twos
Opponent for trip aces with a low draw
Raymer not only was in danger of losing the pot if a four, five, or six came, he would also have to split it if any low card hit the river. The dealer put out the river and it was a high card to give the 2004 Main Event Champion the pot, more than doubling up in the process.
Steven Wolansky opened for a raise, and only the small blind called. The small blind check-called the flop before leading the turn. Wolansky called, and the small blind checked the . Wolansky bet, and his opponent leaned back in his seat and thought for a bit before folding.
Wolansky came heart-wrenchingly close to a bracelet last year when he finished second for $139,034 in an eight-game event.
